Pivot Truck Training

The pivot truck is an articulated four-wheel counterbalance truck with unique aisle efficiency. Stacking aisles can be as small as 1600mm (using a 1200mm wide by 1000mm deep pallet) giving a density of storage that exceeds that of any reach truck.

5-day novice training course for up to 3 delegates -who have no experience on a counterbalance forklift truck

Certification:

Each delegate will be given a theoretical (multi-choice format) test to assess their job-related safety knowledge, pre-use and a practical test, upon successful completion a certificate of basic training will be awarded.

As an accredited training organisation, we can offer a certification either at a non-accredited level (known as in house) training which allows the delegates to use this training for your company only, or we can also offer a national photo ID certificate at a cost of £20.00 per person. This then enables the trainee to operate (with permission) anywhere in the UK. Their names and details are kept on a national database. The certificate is valid throughout the UK and will be recognised by both employment agencies and perspective employers.

When conducting training at customers’ premises we will require the following:

Once again many thanks.

Hi , just a quick message to say that today we had Ryan take a course for 3 of our staff on counterbalance forklifts.
The feedback I have received is that the course was delivered very professionally and a lot of new information was shared .
Our on site training facilities were used to deliver the theory test which Ryan will now be familiar with .
I would like to say we were impressed by Ryan and any further training we require within the Millcroft group we will contact you for a quote .

Thanks to Ace Trainers we were booked onto a course with very little notice (thanks to a cancellation) at a very competitive price.
The level of instruction was very thorough and our novice fork truck driver was very comfortable with the training.
All round; extremely pleased with the service provided.
